Info

This repository stores AUR builds for compiling glibc packages and compiled glibc packages in pacman format in the releases department. Here the AUR builds are divided into two types:

• distro are builds that are configured to compile on a linux distribution (or on proot-distro).
• termux are builds that are configured to compile on termux.

At the moment, glibc packages have only been compiled for the aarch64 architecture.

Installation steps:

1. Installing the required packages.
   The most essential is pacman. If you are installing glibc packages that have been compiled on a linux distribution, then you will need proot (in the release of the packages there is information where they were compiled).

   pkg ins pacman -y # necessary
   pkg ins proot -y  # needed only when installing packages that have hard links
2. Installing the archive with glibc packages.
   Important: pay attention to where the packages were compiled, since the installation phase depends on it.

   # Installing the latest archive
   wget https://github.com/Maxython/glibc-for-termux/releases/download/20220711/gpft-20220711-aarch64.tar.xz
   tar xJf gpft-20220711-aarch64.tar.xz
3. Installing glibc packages.
   If you selected packages that were compiled in termux, then the installation should proceed like this:

   pacman -U glibc-for-termux/*
   If the packages that were compiled in the linux distribution, then the installation should proceed like this:

   proot --link2symlink pacman -U glibc-for-termux/*
4. Final.
   After installation, the grun command will be available, it is intended to run binaries that depend on glibc or to run a customized shell.
   For example:
   • grun ./binary_file - running binaries
   • grun --shell - running a customized shell (gives access to glibc commands)
